EXPLORE NEW HAVEN

Hotel Marcel's waterfront location in the Historic Long Wharf District of New Haven — at the gateway to New England — makes us privy to diverse cultural and nature-fueled activities. Yale University and museums are nearby favorites, along with the Shubert Theater, Wooster Square's legendary pizza, and much more.

Enjoy everything New Haven has to offer including, sailing, dragon boating, rowing, wine tasting, and upscale shopping. Take in the scenery with a bike ride or relaxing stroll along Vision Trail, just footsteps away from our entrance. When you're ready to arrive, depart, or further explore by train, we're a short drive to New Haven's Union Station.
